| NSUI demands doctor-friendly transfer policy | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, June 16: State Health Wing of NSUI has appealed the health ministry to adopt an employee friendly policy for doctors where employees should be shuffled to the areas close to their native places so that their personal and professional life is not put to serious inconvenience.
Mubashar Mir, president state health wing, himself a medical student said that emergency hospitals in the periphery require round the clock and regular services of doctors. This need could best be met by local doctors who are capable of responding to emergency calls.
It is practically difficult for the doctors from distant areas to balance their social and family responsibilities and their professional duties. Obviously doctors transferred to areas far away from their native places find themselves shuttling between their home and workplace and face problems in dispensing their duties effectively. It is a fact that a local doctor is well known to his patients and can understand their patients in a better way. The patients, too, would find relief in finding their local doctor available to them.
He said that it was high time the government framed a rational and practical administrative approach to the entire matter and ensured that the interests of the employees and the people were served well. Mir stressed that doctors belonging to far flung and backward areas should be given high priority to be posted to their own areas so that they can contribute to the health status of their local area.
He said that our state still lags behind in health services in rural areas. It is important to create perfect coordination between the doctors, patients and the state.
Mir said that NSUI state health wing will continue its struggle to contribute towards the betterment of the healthcare setup in the state. |
